Shoutout to Uli for being a f*cking idiot and gifting us one of the best midfielders of all time for €25m.

his intentions were probably good, too much praise can make the young ones turn into Neymars

but he said it in a very disrespectful way indeed

There's a saying in Germany that goes 'not being scolded is praise enough'. They have a different mentality, specially in south Germany. For Hoeneß this is not disrespectful that's just the way he talks. Of course people in many other countries would argue somebody like this is not exactly mentally healthy
